I started the group of Magical Childhood Photography Awards on facebook In March 2021. The idea was born after I fell in love with the world of children’s art photography. It is a group dedicated to photographers who want to share their photos devoted to their childhood. It is important to encourage photographers to be creative and to save the best childhood moments and memories.

I wanted to connect people who want to take part in a photo competition, to check and verify your skills and ideas while learning how people react to these photos. When I was new to the photography business, I was either criticized for my work or ignored. As a result, I created a place where the photos of not only professional photographers are accepted, but also those still studying at an intermediate level.

The group also has an instagram account, where we promote Your work. It is also a place where are photos which were nominated to the second stage of the competition.

Claudia Marzo

Claudia Marzo is a Spanish photographer from Zaragoza. She is a self-taught photographer that started her journey as a children photographer 6 years ago, but she has always loved to take photos of her family and friends when she was just a child. When she finished high school she wanted to study photography so she wanted to join a photography school but sadly it closed and she couldn’t start her studies. Instead of giving up and studying something else that would not make her happy she started to rehearse by herself and after years of practice she got to find her own style. She is an award winning photographer and her work was published on International Kid Model Magazine a few times, the issue 100 as cover, back cover and “meet the photographer”. She is specialized in children and family photography and always works outdoor with natural light, she loves the sunlight and the warm sunset colors, she believes they create the perfect scenes to portray the little ones. One of the things that characterizes her is her edit style, she uses warm and saturated colors trying to transform everyday scenes into images that convey the innocence, naturalness and spontaneity of children.
